From Rising To Setting

It’s been a good day.
No, I wasn’t up at the rising of the sun 😀
And I didn’t actually see it setting…

But – the day was light and cheerful, if a bit tiring.
Got a bit further on the organisation of something that will be fun.
Randomly crossed paths with friends, one of whom we haven’t seen in a while.
And got to the bakery early enough to get a lemongrass chicken roll!

As winter spreads tendrils into the atmosphere, the skies showcase the sun more deeply.
Mornings glow on our wooden floor…

And light up the windows!

We were out the other day, a bit later in the afternoon than usual.

You can almost see the chill.
And smell the wood fires and dinners cooking (somewhere, there was shepherd’s pie…)

Light hits differently in winter.

Musing on all this brought to mind a song – one which I’ve posted before, but bears listening to again.

“Blessed be the name of the Lord
From this time forth and forevermore!
From the rising of the sun to its going down
The Lord’s name is to be praised.” –
Psalm 113:2-3 NKJV
